About our corporate fish and chip catering in Chute Forest
Whether it’s a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, the van makes the day feel special. We are frequently asked to cater celebrating a big win and thank-you lunches for the team, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.
At country workplaces around Chute Forest, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Chute Forest?
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Chute Forest from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
How does payment work for businesses?
We’ll talk you through booking and payment for businesses.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Send round an allergy question
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The day of the week
- Service time
- The number of meals
- Whether a minimum applies
Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where the van would park
- Where the event is
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your staff event, and we will check the date and send a price.
Planning the van’s spot
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
From the hatch
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Staff lunches
- Haddock and chips
How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with frying and serving. A lunch-break van visit in Chute Forest is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 4:00pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
How to get a price

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
